SSR's Florida and Houston offices are in need of a Building Information Modeling/3D Project Support Coordinator. The BIM Project Support Coordinator is responsible for assisting in the development and implementation of the overall Building Information Modeling (BIM) process as it relates to software application and project support. Regularly engages with design teams to train staff, enhance project performance and generally support the users. Works diligently to improve the dynamics of the BIM initiative through testing and implementation of application upgrades.

An ideal candidate will be a technical school graduate with 8 years of related experience or a college graduate with 4 years of related experience.

David Baldacchino recently found himself on the awkward end of the much too frequent conversation for many people in this business, "We're sorry we have to let you go". Rather than dwelling on this as a setback he's looking forward to finding that next great firm. He wants to stay in Houston but he also realizes that a perfect opportunity might lie elsewhere. You can read his own post at his blog Do U Revit? I do.

With his energy, attitude and experience I just can't see him being available for too long. If your firm is looking for the right person to make a difference what are you waiting for?
